ALCOCK, Anthony. Understanding Ulster. Ulster Society, 1994. 178pp. Paperback.[`For over twenty-five years the news from or about Northern Ireland has been uniformly bad: terrorism, sectarian murder, discrimination, economic shortage and social deprivation. Violence has claimed over 3,000 deaths and over 30,000 injured. Why? This book argues that since 1919 successive British governments have shown little commitment to the Union, deliberately pursuing a policy of Irish unification by consent.']. IRISH
